CuBox-i4Pro Is A Powerful Personal Computer In A 2 Inch Cube
CuBox-i4Pro has been unveiled
by SolidRun, which is an Israeli startup and first came up with CuBox back in
2013. It is quite similar to Rasberry Pi and Arduino boards – comes with mini
computers merged onto a single board. Apart from packing quite a punch, it also
comes with affordable price and that’s us being really modest.
It measures 55 mm and is
equipped with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. It sports a 4GB micro SD card loaded with
Android while also being capable of running Debian Linux. It has been built
with a Freescale i.MX6 Quad core System on a Chip (SoC) and features 2GB of RAM
(64bit @ 1066Mbps). There is also a Vivante GC2000 graphics processor and a
real time clock with backup battery. Although the device can be used as an
Android machine, it can also be used as a general purpose Linux host either
without or with external storage or you can run the open source media player,
XBMC.
The front face of the gadget
features a flush infrared remote control port that is capable of transmitting
as well as receiving. The adjacent face consists an optical audio out while the
rear face has a power connector, 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port, a 1080p HDMI 1.4
port that comes with 3D and CEC support, micro SD card slot, upper powered USB
port, lower powered USB port, an eSATA II port and finally a micro USB to RS232
port.
